Greetings Dear Cyber Citizen,

You are hearby invited to participate in this years "CU-SeeMe KidCast for Peace"
-- a Cyber event and physical Earthday Celebration.  I have placed this message 
here because you are a potential participating school, cybercafe,
artist/community
 organizer, teacher/media maven and/or corporate leader. 

We are currently building a VRML "EarthStation" as a repository for submissions
 from each child, youth or school group wanting to express their vision of
peace. 
Your are invited to put up homepages with SHOCKWAVEed animation, QuickTime 
movies, computer graphics, scanned artwork or collages, and of course poems and
stories releating to the theme; healing ourselves and our world. While our
focus is
on K-12 kids, everyone is invited to participate. Server space is available for 
those that don�t have it.

This live and cyberspace event is being planned for Earthday weekend
( April 19-22, 1996) and beyond. We would like it to be at the scale of
the recent
"24 Hours in Cyberspace" only with a focus on "solutions" from a children's
point of view. We need your help to make this event a success. As you know,
the most amazing things are possible in the shortest amount of time...given
the connectivity we have to each other through the internet.

We are again asking the younger generations for their assistance in
helping us heal 
ourselves and our planet. We want to know what they think, and what steps
we should
 take, to insure a more peaceful and abundant world community. You can
check out our 
current press release and pictures from last year's Creativity Cafe
CU-SeeMe KidCast

Demonstrate your interest and indicate your level of participation from

           child's vision of peace

Email your response to Creativity Cafe <CCafe@creativity.net>, the event's 
initial sponsor with "KidCast" in the subject field or browse on over to 
KidCast Central for ***full details*** and progress reports.

Once the KidCast site is up and running, it will remain in the EarthStation 
circling cyberspace, ready to be added to on an ongoing basis. We intend it 
to serve as a reminder that there are many solutions to the personal and global 
challenges that face us....that wisdom comes from a higher source, and
that people 
of all ages--tapping into the creative force--can turn things around in a world 
that has been constantly at war fighting the ravages of starvation,
homelessness, 
disease, poverty, and fear.

Will you help us tap into this great wealth of our most abundant resource...
the children? If so, please participate in this year's "Solutions; A CU-SeeMe 
KidCast For Peace". Our multicast will feature kids (of all ages) sharing
their hopes 
and dreams for a more positive future.  Please help us organize this event
in schools, 
cybercafes, and art centers around the world having the computer resources to 
participate. Pass this on to those you think would appreciate it.

Also, if you are in San Francisco or plan to be, let us know so we can be
sure to invite 
you to join us at "broadcast central" for our live and cyberspace
celebration. We are 
planning  adventures featuring state-of-the-art interactive interpersonal
play, and 
live music for your dancing pleasure.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming....

Signed: a concerned citizen
